How to Reset a Passcode for a Bluetooth

When you establish connection between two Bluetooth devices, you enter a passcode on both the devices. Sometimes the passcode gives an error and you are unable to pair both the devices. For connecting them again, you have to reset the existing passcode to set another one.
